Abstract

A concise, analytical method for incorporating the effects of zero voltage switching (ZVS) interval dynamics in small-signal discrete-time models of the dual-active bridge (DAB) converter is detailed. The method allows the influence of the resonant transition between tank inductor and switching device output capacitance to be examined. Importantly, the method does not require the inclusion of an additional state to account for these dynamics, which greatly simplifies the resulting models of converter behavior. The calculations are applicable to any alternate topology where ZVS transition behaviors contribute significantly to converter dynamics, as in many high frequency converters. The method is verified through experimental results on a 1 MHz DAB converter.
